I'm going to be going to my first-ever Frank Turner concert on the 18th in Boston. It's one of the multi-bill gigs (Bouncing Souls, Arkells, and Will Varley) and I'm curious how it works, especially since the venue lists 18:45 as the event time but Frank's website lists 17:30 as the event time.

Are these a traditional opening acts-then-headliner format? Does Frank and/or other members of the band do a song or two with the other acts? How does it all work and what should I be expecting?

Got email from Agganis Arena that answers some of your questions. Hope this helps!
